Osprey Daylite Plus, Smoky Desert Print/Magma Brown, One Size

Good quality. Plenty of useful pockets and nice features. Comfortable, easily adjustable. Easy to fit lots in but still a compact size and design.

Positives: 1. This is the most comfortable rucksack I have ever used. 2. The back ventilation is excellent. It is not clear from the photos but the ventilation panel is deeply corrugated to allow a good cross-flow of air. 3. The straps are ideally spaced apart and hold the sack steady without needing to be too tight. 4. The main pockets are useful sizes and easily accessed with decent zips but the small zipped pocket is rather narrow for my man-size hands. Negatives: 1. There is no way of attaching anything that is tucked into the 'drop-in' pocket. That is a shame because it would be ideal for a small camera if there was a safety clip for it. I may insert some eyelets. 2. There is no pen/pencil slot. 3. The pouches in the secondary section are too floppy to hold anything securely. An elastic top would have helped. 4. There are no loops or other fixings on the outside to attach any extra items. I may insert some eyelets. 5. There is no obvious place for a personal music player - those floppy pouches are not secure enough for an expensive player. 6. There is no obvious way to attach accessories to the shoulder straps for quick access. Osprey do make a pouch but it is £18ish for a tiny little pouch barely big enough for a phone. 7. There are no elastic straps and no way to fit any. I may insert some eyelets. Despite the negatives it is still an excellent backpack. I am delighted with it and am sure I will gradually find ways around its drawbacks.

Great daypack! It’s light, a good size, durable and I love the colour. Osprey is known for its quality and this pack really is well made. I was surprised to be able to buy for such a good price. If I were to be really picky, I wish it had trekking pole storage but it’s not the end of the world.

I bought this backpack for a 15 day trip to Europe. I needed a bag to keep all my stuff together as I get through airports, go sightseeing in busy places and clamber on and off coaches. This pack fits the bill. It holds my camera bag, waterproof jacket, warm jacket, iPad and has enough organiser pockets for smaller items without provoking endless obsessing about where to put things. It fits me well (5'4" female) and has a slim but expandable profile. It does have a lot of dangling straps that I'll want to tuck away somehow. It was £10 cheaper than on the Osprey website, and when I placed it in the basket a further 20% promotion appeared. It took me a while to realise it had a defect. The ends of the waist strap, which had been folded over and stitched, were too thick to pass through the slots of the buckle. The very tips had been shoved into the buckle so it looked OK, but the strap could not be tightened. My partner looked at me scornfully and attempted to push, pull, force the strap through. No joy. In the end I used a stitch ripper to make the strap one layer thick, and the straps passed through the buckle. The ends of the straps had already been singed, so I don't think they will fray. I must say, the thread was tough and there were at least two rows of stitches, so it bodes well for the durability of the bag. My message to you: if your bag has this defect, just get amazon or Osprey to replace it.

Perfect for work, looks good and holds everything i need. Light weight and I like the buckles and straps to help spread the load.

Very good quality, all day comfortable daypack. Feels like it'll outlast me, it's seen me through numerous trips and walks already

This seems like a solid backpack, it feels like it will last for years. There are a couple of things I don't particularly like about the design though: the straps are a little thin and a bit uncomfortable and the outer pocket... I'm not really sure what to use it for. It's the perfect size for a paperback book, but if it rains the book will get ruined. Perhaps some clothing or a pair of shoes...? Anyway, strange design... an interior pocket would have been more useful. Initially I was a bit concerned about the capacity but the bag functions well enough for a day bag and the bottle pockets are great. However, not a versatile bag, in my opinion. UPDATE AFTER 3 MONTHS: The stitching has gone on one of the straps, which is disappointing and doesn't look good. And the carry handle really digs between your shoulder blades when you're walking, making the bag uncomfortable when loaded. I don't think I would buy this bag again in retrospect.

I wasn’t sure if I’d like the red but was pleasantly surprised. It’s not bright, it’s a lovely deep red. The quality of the bag feels good but most importantly it’s comfortable. I don’t know how they’ve done it but somehow the shoulder steps just sit right. The attention to detail is good too, the zippers feel great. My new favourite backpack.

商品届きまして約１ヶ月、日帰り登山やハイキングに20回ほど使用いたしました。 サイド、通常飲料ボトルや水筒をを入れるポケットがゆるゆるで浅く、前かがみになったりしたら直ぐに落ちます(>_<) 特にTHERMOSのボトルを岩場で落とした時は穴開き寸前でぼこぼこに(￣▽￣;)涙 仕方なくポケットのくちを絞りましたが、やはり深さが足らない！ 本格的な登山時に使用のシラス36は凄く使いやすいのですが💦 買い替えも検討中です(>_<)💧

Very happy with it. Versatile and well made

Was going to return this because it felt too compact, but it ended up being the perfect size and fits all the things I need for a day at school or out walking. Has a laptop pocket and plenty of other pockets for storage. The mesh side pockets don’t hold a regular water bottle without it falling out and although I understand that the pockets are not meant to be used for that purpose, it is what most people will generally want to do. That’s the most annoying drawback, but I’ve just adjusted and use a smaller water bottle or have learned to use the straps to secure a regular bottle a little more snugly - def not ideal, but there you go. Overall, I like this compact style that fits a lot. It is great for my back as it distributes the weight very nicely and even on heavy days, I can manage without crying.

Ich habe den Rucksack bereits in einer anderen Farbe (die leider nicht so gut zu meiner üblichen Kleidung passt) und liebe ihn! Dafür, dass er so klein und handlich ist, passt überraschend viel rein, ich trage damit fast täglich mein Notebook durch die halbe Stadt und dank der Gurte habe ich danach keine Rückenschmerzen. Der hier ist noch besser, weil er eine tolle Farbe hat, die zu allem passt.

Great lightweight pack for day hiking! You can also attach to a bigger Osprey if you plan on hiking multiple days. It’s easy to get on and off, has several separate storage pockets and comes in a variety of great colors. I wish I could reach my water bottle easier as I hike Joshua Tree often but a quick fix to attach in the front with a carabiner was all it took. I recommend this pack.
